Whenever we see a Tatte Bakery & Cafe we always make a stop. It doesn't matter which location you are at, it is always top notch and consistently good. We love stopping here either for breakfast or for dessert after dinner. I love their lattes and almond croissants, they are sooo good. For my dessert it is always the tiramisu for me. The options are plentiful and they are all so good. read more

Stopped by Tatte Bakery & Cafe in Newton to grab a quick snack to munch on while waiting for a table to open up for dinner nearby. It's so funny, everywhere we went today there was a Tatte Bakery right next door. Guess it was a sign for us to get something from Tatte haha. I've honestly only ever visited Tatte a few times. Usually to get a drink or shakshuka. Today, we decided to get a pistachio croissant and an iced matcha latte. I love pistachio croissants with pistachio cream filling but I find that not many places around here offer that. It's usually just the croissant with crushed pistachios on top. This one, to my surprise, did have pistachio cream inside. Only had a little smear of the cream though. I found the croissant to be meh. The pistachio cream itself was tasty, however, the croissant was incredibly dry and crunchy. Must be a bit stale since we visited ~6pm/later in the day. 2.5/5 As for the matcha iced latte, it wasn't anything to write home about. It was bland. No real matcha flavor & to me, tasted like green colored milk. I'm sure they use some type of matcha powder to make the drink but this was absolutely no bueno. Unimpressed. Perhaps the worst matcha latte I've ever had. 0/5 Overall, not likely to revisit Tatte for these items. Staff was nice though!! Parking: street parking read more

Popped in while awaiting for our table next door! There is so many tatte's but Newton center's is clean with ample seating. The staff were very accommodating and the order came out fast. Pastries right at the front when you walk in, drinks picked up at drink bar in the middle of the shop! Ordered a quick Matcha latte, it's light and easy to drink, earthy notes, light sweetener. They didn't have cold foam, or flavorings to add. They do have some syrups available but not really anything that interested me. Occasionally they'll have specialty drink versions the staff told me. They had a lemonade matcha seltzer available though. I also ordered a pistachio croissant. Overall light and flaky, the filling part inside was the best, the outer bits were a bit dry (probably because we came at dinner time, so might not have been as fresh). read more

It's always a fun time at Tatte. They have great selection of breakfast and pastry. I got the croissant breakfast sandwich with sunny side up egg. It was very flavorful with the avocado being so fresh. The croissant was buttery and crispy. The latte hit the spot with very pretty decorative art. The service was very fast and crowded atmosphere which was expected. read more

Ordered chicken pita online. Had several times in the past and the chicken should be warm. When I opened up the bag, I noticed it wasn't warm and there was a lot of liquid oozing out. There were 2 small pieces of chicken in there! No wonder it wasn't warm! If I wanted a veggie pita, I would have ordered that and I will never go back there. Sandwich Works around the corner is better value and quality-and they know my name! read more

Tatte is that popular chain of breakfast and brunch cafes you see around Boston, known for their wide variety of pastries, salads, and heartier dishes. The place itself is usually quite spacious, designed with an airy, French-inspired feel that often includes countertop seating and plenty of tables. We stopped in and tried a matcha latte and a hot chocolate. The matcha latte was good, it had a nice, smooth consistency and wasn't overly sweet. I will say it didn't have quite as strong or pronounced a matcha taste as I personally prefer, but it was still a pleasant drink. The hot chocolate was similar; it was fine and comforting, but more on the milky side without a very rich, deep chocolate flavor. It's a reliable spot with a great atmosphere for meeting someone or getting some work done. While the specific drinks we had were mild, their real strength seems to be in their beautiful, house-made pastries and the overall vibe of their cafes. It's easy to see why they've grown so much since starting as a single farmers market stand. read more

I've been wanting to try breakfast at Tatte and it was delicious! Tatte makes the most delicious pastries and treats and their breakfast is equally good. I really liked the traditional Shakshuka. Two eggs poached in a savory spiced tomato and pepper sauce. I loved it and can't wait to try more dishes! read more

Friend ordered iced drink. Server delivers hot drink. We say "if you're just going to throw out the hot drink, we'll drink it" and she says sure. A few minutes later she comes back and says manager says the drink must be retrieved, we can't keep it. So awkward/embarrassing for all of us, such poor customer relations (they'd have to throw it out at that point ... and the error was theirs not ours). My friend and I are both business people who are service-oriented. Why would management be so short-sighted here? We are definitely taking Tatte off our list of options! Ta-ta Tatte! read more

We went early on a Sunday morning probably 30 mins after they opened. There were already a few customers there but within 45 mins or so it was packed and hard to get a table! We enjoyed everything we ordered. The potato and leek quiche (soft and well flavored) which came with the simplest but tastiest side salad - lettuce and pickled cabbage. The avocado croissant sandwich with over medium eggs. The sour cherry and cheese Danish and finally an iced pistachio latte. Special call out to the latte because Tatte always makes their syrups/mixes in house. It's actual pistachio and not some artificial essence BS. Hence, Tatte like Latte! Perfect ambiance for a Sunday morning. The cozy quiet of a chill Sunday with a slight buzz of a cafe that's coming alive. Blissful. read more

So Tatte recently started serving dinner. I think they are still in a bit of the trial period, because the menu online does not reflect the menu in the store, they had tableside service for a while, but then took it away, etc... The food was pretty good. The mezze platter was well worth the money, and came with a very fluffy pita bread. We thought the lasagna was only so so, but the Aleppo, chicken rice, halloumi salad, and chicken pita were all delicious. It's interesting that they turn a lot of the lights off to make it a little bit more dinner like and romantic. I wish they had more of the lights on, but that's just my personal preference. read more

Tatte is a new-ish chain of bakery and lunch spots, that first popped up in Boston. They are a good space for sandwich + salad or an early morning espresso + croissant. Newton has a sizeable room with abundant tables. Splendid ambience. It is a bright and quite loud dining room. Bakery has variety of great tasting breakfast and lunch items, dishes and sweet treats. Get there early for selection.. The tiramisu was kind of light, but well made. Items are made and boxed to-go. Review: 5 read more

The young men at the counter were super friendly and helpful. One of the managers, a woman, was very off-putting. She was rearranging the dessert fridge and we had just purchased a pastry. She proceeded to remove pastries (right next to the one we had just purchased) and dump them into the trash can. I wondered if ours should have been tossed as well. Each time she walked by, she offered no explanation, just handfuls of pricey desserts being dumped into the trash. In this day and age of food insecurity I found this to be very insensitive and unsettling. Needless to say I am in no hurry to return for a repeat performance. read more

I tried the Shakshuka lamb meatball, and it was so delicious; the lamb wasn't overpowering, and the taste was just perfect. I also tried the Meze breakfast, and it didn't look so appetizing, but it was delicious; the roasted shishito peppers were a surprise, and the bagel. I just didn't like their sausage breakfast sandwich; the breakfast sandwich tasted better. read more

Hello Ron Shaich and Act III Holdings! Don't lose the vibe! Beautiful pastry window and classic ambiance. BUT the pastries are heavy, surely frozen delivered and reheated. The flat white and cappuccino were identical. A few visits now, full missed the mark. read more

Yum! And if you have a gluten allergy, there are lots of choices...meals AND sweets. I had a chai latte that hit the spot and enjoyed the delicious spices in their version. I also nibbled on a giant (gluten free) raisin oatmeal cookie. This place is big and has seating at a counter, at a coffee bar, or tables. read more

Tatte always delivers consistent solid food. The salmon bowl was excellent - surprisingly spiced and piping hot. The shakshuka is always fun and interesting. Only complaint is that the rice and bread were not as warm as we wanted. Food was served quickly given how busy they were. Beautiful outdoor seating although always heavily contested! read more

Tatte is usually a solid choice if you're looking for a bite in Newton. The seating area is pretty massive -- yet it somehow is always filled up (probably a testament to their consistently good food!). I ordered an ice tea and turkey avocado sandwich. Both were fantastic -- the sandwich had a lot more taste than I expected, and I would definitely recommend it to someone who isn't sure about what to order. My only suggestion would be for this location to make their entry way and ordering process more streamlined. There was a disorganized crowd of people waiting to order which led to some frustration by employees. Overall a great experience here! read more

My friend and I came here for lunch on a Saturday afternoon. I had never come to this Tatte before, but it was huge! There were tons of tables inside and some patio seating in the back. I had the chicken pita. The chunks of chicken inside were a little big, but all the ingredients went well together. The staff working here seemed a little stressed out, but given that it was weekend brunch and incredibly busy, it was understandable. read more

The pastries are OK, but this review is about lunch. I ordered a 'short rib grilled cheese' sandwich. No meat inside, barely a few flecks if any at all. I expect more for the $15 I was charged. Maybe they gave me the wrong sandwich? OK, then it was inept service - I was clearly charged for the short rib sandwich, so that must have been entered, and given the slow service (amplified during a fairly busy lunch service). I wouldn't go and ask for a replacement. I won't go back, and why should I? There are so many good lunch places in Newton Center. read more

This place is declining. Staff seems indifferent, service is slow. Today, I ordered a halva-chocolate brownie. From among the heaping display of brownies, the server managed to find the one hardened and under-sized one. It was literally 1/2 the size of the others and rigid. I ask for a swap and he obliged. Why choose this one defective one to pass off to me? Did he not notice? (Bad.) Did he not care? (Also bad.) Was he deliberately trying to pass off the non-sales-worthy one on me? (Worst.) read more

I love Tatte for one specific drink. The Lemon Thyme Espresso Spritz over there is absolutely sublime and that drink opened my eyes to the wonders of putting shots of espresso on top of sparkling water. It doesn't make any logical sense but it somehow works like a charm. Tatte removed it from their menu at the start of the summers this year and I haven't been back there since then. I sincerely hope that they bring it back. read more

We tried some pastries here (preztel bagel with sesame) - it was a bit hard to chew and tasted stale? The almond croissant was not twice baked and it was just okay. Scone was okay as well, as i dont like frosting on my scone. The best one was pretty the drink i got which was oat milk latte with iced ginger and dates. read more

This place is good and short of great. The good is the menu and tasty food. Unfortunately once you order prepare for the disarray once you're ready to eat. Service is rushed and choppy so I don't recommend tipping over 10% . There sean to be a disconnection between staff and patrons. Ambiance well if you like Grand central in NYC is like eating right in the middle of it. PS. if you are eating here dressed nice I don't recommend sitting anywhere by the kitchen or you will come out smelling like every dish served. read more

First time at any Tatte. The food here is just horrible. Chicken vegetable soup was room temperature. Didn't want to return it because I had already returned the potato leek soup that I didn't order. There was a strange seasoning in the soup. Just awful. The hot chocolate was room temperature. It was so crowded I just didn't want to return another thing. We were told to bus our table but there was nowhere to bring the stack of dishes. Brought some baked good home. The Easter cookids were hard as a rock. The brownie was dry and stale. Such a disappointment. This place is overrated and needs some competition. read more

This was a pleasant surprise and experience looks like. I was in town from Miami visit a friend when suggested we check out this new charming bakery for a light brunch. Lovely place fast counter service, they give you a number and bring the food and special coffee orders to the table. The atmosphere has a pulse not quiet or quaint. The design is very clean sleek French bistro meets Swedish design and practicality. The food and baked goods are superb, service is good, fast with a smile. Feel free to ask questions everyone is warm and friendly. I hope you check this place out and I hope it continues to stay on point with originality, quality and great service. Love this place. read more

Everytime I go here, it's pretty much the same experience, which isn't a bad thing! You wait in line, get asked by the bakery if you want anything (which was confusing at first since in the end I just told the person working the register and they got my croissant for me) and then you keep walking down the line until checkout. :) The wait time here is short, and the staff is super friendly. There's a massive parking lot out back (anyone remember the Panera days?) and a really nice outdoor seating setup outside. This place is definitely one of the bigger Tatte bakery/cafe joints out there. This literally used to be a Panera bread so try to picture that if you can. Clearly Tatte is a huge hit given there's always somewhat of a line, and there's never a place to sit. That's the only hard part about coming here-- everyone likes to mingle or work over a cup of coffee (can't blame em) so finding a place to sit can be super tough. read more

Really a convenient place! Can order online in advance or take out. Open sandwiches are good with the fresh ingredients. Speed in the kitchen. Coffee is only OK, would not give much credit. read more

Grabbed a quick bite for lunch with my coworker. I got the lamb pita, they got the turkey BLT, and we shared the blueberry cheescake. The lamb was moist but it had soooo much sauce it was hard to eat and taste anything else in the pita. Wish they put less or that I asked for it on the side. My coworker enjoyed their sandwich. The cheesecake was the best part of the meal, I would definitely recommend that! read more

--Pastries are just not fresh. They look impressive in their towering stacks, but that's the peak of the experience. --Check-out line needs to be sorted for people just purchasing ready-to-go items. You can wait 15 minutes to checkout with a simple pre-packaged good. --Too many people occupy the tables for hours on laptops "doing work." If guests are not consuming food/drink, they need to move on. read more

I'm a big fan of Tatte so I was happy to come across this location in Newton. Looks can be deceiving. It looks like a normal storefront but once you enter, you realize how huge this place is. Mammoth. We came during lunch and it was quite busy, with a long line of people getting takeout, but the bar and dining area were buzzing as well. I will say it is hard to stay disciplined as you pass all the excellent pastries and cookies on your way to order lunch. However, we stayed strong and got the lamb meatball dish. The service staff was really awkward, almost rude, very strange. But oh well, we shuffled off to the back and found a seat by a window. The food was excellent - the lamb and veggies were great, but the pita, oh man the pita. I have no idea how they make the pita so perfect. It really makes the dish. On our way out, we got some cookies for the road. Aside from the weird counter service, the overall experience and the FOOD were excellent. read more

Got the quiche for takeout, and it was very burned. The crust was black. I'm surprised the let it out of the kitchen.

Tatte is like that best friend from home. You probably won't see or talk to them much in months but every time you meet again, it's comforting and picking back up is super easy. I first ate at Tatte when I was visiting the city with my husband as a potential place to relocate and loved the menu, the tuna sandwich we ordered, and the bustling cafe vibes, and so I have a soft spot in my heart for the place. Convenient location in Newton Centre. There's a parking lot right in front - metered before 6pm but it's super cheap and you can pay using the Park Mobile app. Definitely draws a crowd during the lunch hours, though the line moves quickly. They have an assortment of pastries and desserts arranged tantalizingly in front right before the register. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. I skew more towards their salads, which all come with the cutest, fluffiest bread bun, but their sandwiches are also tasty. They can be on the smaller size, depending on what you order. Never really had to wait for a table, no matter how busy it looked. read more

One of my favorite Tatte locations! Super spacious and well lit with lots of seating, haven't had to wait for a seat like I have at other Tatte locations even at peak times. Despite how large it is service is pretty quick, I got my food within 15 minutes. Just as a heads up the chefs at this location will not make any swaps or edits to menu items-- even won't switch the type of bread on the side of the shakshuka. read more

Tatte has delicious baked goods, and food in general. They also have a variety of delicious drinks. The Turkey avocado sandwich was delicious and so was the lemon mint tart!

Tatte is also available for delivery through DoorDash and has been fresh and delicious when I have ordered that way as well. It is a bit expensive, but it is worth it! read more
